CHICAGO AUTHORITIES
that the Anarchists Will be Ex.
ecuted November IL.

CHICAGO, Oct. 20.
In the criminal court on Wednesday, State
Attorney GrinHell took action which seems
to indicate he is certain that the condemned
anarchist will certainly be executed on No
vember llth.
1t is understood as many prisoners as pos
sible will be removed from the jail before
the date fixed for the execution. The au-
thorities do not seem to be satisfied that the
precautions already taken will protect the
jsil from assault on that day. Judge Baker
was about sentencing thief TO thirty days
imprisonment when the attorney requested
that the sentence be shortened so that it
would expire before the date of the execution
stating it was desirable to have as few prison
ers in the Jail as possible. Judge Baker as
sented and made the sentence fifteen DAYS.

LONDON, OCT, 70.
Gladstone addressed an ass emblage of four
thousand persons at Derby. The crowd
climbed to the roof girders. He said the lib

ers and disintegrators. All objections then
presented had passed No Irish member of

failed, home rule would come next.

LONDON Oct. 20.
Lord Randolph Churchill at Sunderland
today, denounced as immoral Gladstone's
proffer to make disestablishment of the
church in Wales, plank in the liberal plat
form, in return for support of the Irish
scheme.
Even if Gladstone succeeded in forcing
dissolution and obtaining a majority, the
home rule proposals would be fought to the
last grip even to the abolition of the House OF
Lords, thus certainly postponing these vital
reforms until 1891.
